OP
To Contr_Conn and all of experts in Rockwell technology. I have looked for this 9905-END in all of the Rockwell resellers and nobody carries this item. I need only two, one for one of our L16ER and another one for a 1734- EtherNet/IP remote IO assembly that I need to resell to a customer, and for which the distributor did not quote the 9905-END and I purchased without realizing that this part was missing.
I got a quote from this distributor for 100 units for the equivalent of around US$ 500. I am thinking of purchasing this because I do not want to deliver to my customer a product with an insulating tape protecting the back plane bus of their brand-new product.
So I wonder, and here is my question: Do you think I could resell the other 97 units in eBay? it seems other people are in my situation. Yesterday I had a customer in my office who needed some help with Logix 5000 project, and he had the very same L16ER as we do, and his also did not have the 9905-EN.
I am not expecting to make a killing, just recover the investment and shipping costs, plus some profit for the effort. Do you think if I offer the 9905-END for about US$ 20/unit plus shipping expenses (some US$ 15) that there would be interest for this in eBay? Or do you think if I buy these things they will stay on our shelf gathering dust until the end of the universe?
